Does anyone know of a good solution for front sway bar mounts? We were switching my camber plates back to normal after running at the autocross on Saturday and I noticed that both sides have bent the u-shaped mounting tab down. It looks like Ireland bars now ship with a U shaped mount but they do not sell them on their own. The car ran excellent, and all though I didn't run all that well, my co-driver was 2 tenths off of 3rd and half a second off of 2nd in STX. People seemed to be surprised that the beater was so close!

Wouldn't be a problem if somebody brought it over here!

I drove a LHD car in england for 2 days, mostly hung over/or still slightly drunk, and I was able to get the hang of it pretty quickly. Hardest part is turning right through oncoming traffic, but with a passenger, it's not too bad.

Common problem with stiff bars, take your oem clip and weld another tab with hole drilled in it, mark the hole where it hits the frame, drill frame to appropriate size and thread the hole. Search around R3V I'm sure theres a pic of this or something similar. Check your rear bar for the same kind of damage to the bar mounts.

Anybody have some spare Nitric Acid laying around?

This .gif is kinda old, but still pretty neat. From Osaka/Kansai in Japan.

Bonus points to whoever can state why aircraft are [mostly] unaffected by lightning strikes.

Guessing the exterior creates a faraday cage effect?

faraday cage like a BAWS. Even though a faraday cage is used for a totally different purpose...
